has anyone of you already experimented with the biblatex

I haven't, but I'll try to give some suggestions nevertheless. This
website just deals with biblatex, but not biber, am I right?<br>

I need to pass a very special variable to biblatex
(mincrossref=99), but this won’t work as simple argument.
<div>
<div style="FONT-STYLE: normal; DISPLAY: inline;

FONT-WEIGHT: normal; TEXT-DECORATION: none">“m</div>
incrossrefs={integer} default: 2</div>
<div>Sets the minimum number of cross references to hintegeri
when requesting a</div>
<div>BibTeX run. Note that this package option merely affects
the format of certain</div>
<div>requests written to the transcript file. It will not have
any effect if the editor or</div>
<div>compiler script launching BibTeX does not include
dedicated biblatex support or</div>
<div>if BibTeX is manually launched from the command-line. See
§ 2.4.4 for details.</div>

As I understand it, the mincrossrefs you mention (from the biblatex
manual) is actually a package option, i.e., something to set like<br>
\usepackage[mincrossefs=99]{biblatex}<br>
<br>
If I understand it correctly, this is not to be confused with the
"-min-crossrefs" argument you can pass to bibtex like<br>
bibtex -min-crossrefs=99 auxname.aux<br>
<br>
although the two are related somewhat (I guess biblatex passes its
value on to bibtex somehow?).<br>

For biber, I didn't find any command line option corresponding to
"-min-crossrefs", but "mincrossrefs" is referenced in the
documentation a few times. So I would guess that biblatex passes its
value on to biber automatically (e.g., through some configuration
file).<br>
<br>
Writing python/perl/... scripts is certainly possible. The question
is rather if it's really necessary?<br>

<div>P.S.: 0.5r998 runs very smoothly on my machine. I have
the feeling that TW runs faster, lower latencies when

Thanks for sharing. The problem with the launchPdf script seems to
be related to an old version of the script (which may not get
updated, e.g., if you made any changes to it). The most current
version of the script is available at
